Contrary to what some national media members want to tell you, Devin Booker cares more about wins than his point totals. He is currently in a situation where all of the offense runs through him now at overdrive, but it doesn’t matter when opposing teams can’t guard him and ends up going for 40-50 points along the way.
This week, down four key contributors then also losing Deandre Ayton for the 16th and final quarter of action, Booker was marvelous. He averaged 52.3 points, 5.7 rebounds and 6.3 assists on a 73.
